C:\Program files\GIMP-2.0\share\gimp\2.0\brushes

Ok...to make an outside border all you need to do is go to:

Script-fu\decor\add border

then set your border's color, and size then click OK :)

NO!! don't do that!

You put your fonts in C:\WINDOWS\Fonts

And press the refresh button when you open up the fonts dialog :)
